I just picked up a dirt scoop like the one posted in the link below. I found pictures of some that are setup to be pulled forward whereas mine is pushed backwards. Are they different models or are they reversible somehow? Anyone know the model number of mine? I'd like to track down a manual at some point. Also, how is the trip mechanism activated? Is there supposed to be a lever or just a rope? Mine doesn't have anything currently. It appears to have a broken spring that is part of the trip mechanism that will have to be replaced too.

The dirt scoop was reversible yes, pull the side pins and reverse the direction.
I have also attached a picture of what the spring mech should look like, I have rebuilt a couple of these scoops now and highly recommend replacing the springs.uploads/9251/003_.jpguploads/9251/001__2020-06-08_14-27-12.jpguploads/9251/069_.jpg

That makes it pretty clear. Especially the picture of the latching mechanism. Where do you tie the rope off to keep it handy but out of the way?
